Better Late than Never

Monday, September 28, 2009

Hey everyone! I'm finally here with my mojo sample for the week. I've been feeling under the weather for the past several days, so the crafting mojo just didn't strike over the weekend. I did, however, get a bunch of new toys, so I just had to play with a few of them tonight.

Be sure to check out the Mojo blog for this week's sketch. I used new Indian Summer papers from BasicGrey and matted with Bravo Burgundy cardstock. The bird is from the Swan Song set and is stamped on a Nestabilities Fancy Tag (which I trimmed one end off of to fit the sketch) in Bravo Burgundy and colored with a blender pen. The for you sentiment comes from the Chocolate Bunnies set and I framed it with a little square hardware. Then I just finished off with an organdy bow that I heated to curl the ends, then added a little stickles to the bird. Easy peasy!

Okay, I'm headed back to the couch to rest up and get better. I hope you have a great day!

Hi Julee,Sorry to hear you are not feeling well. I love your work and have been following you for quite some time. I have looked for a way to email you personally and can't seem to locate it, so this will have to work. I write for the Boise Examiner, an online newspaper and I would like to do a spotlight article on you and your company. Please contact me at sadiesagirl@live.comThanks so much,Carol
